What makes our region remarkable?

Nestled between Boston and Cape Cod, Southeastern Massachusetts provides an important migration route for people and wildlife alike. But those who come to our region rarely leave it without remarking on its beautiful vistas, diverse recreation opportunities, and abundant forests, farms, wetlands, and coasts. As more people choose to live and work here, the region’s natural and agricultural lands come under greater threat. Donating to Wildlands Trust is one of the most effective ways you can help preserve and restore the cultural and ecological heritage of Southeastern Massachusetts.

Your contributions support projects that:

Protect natural resources
Save undeveloped land
Re-establish farmland
Restore native habitats and maintain trail systems
Educate youth through local service-learning opportunities
